I have created an MX2004 flash.exe/ASP/Access application for a client. I used Flash Studio Pro to add an icon and alter the title- but no fscommands, only AS1. The app receives XML from a call to the ASP, and displays basic HTML format text in a text area. ( i.e. <br>, <b> and <p> tags.)

In XP, Windows 2000, Windows 2000 Server it all works well. However, in Windows 98,
1) The text shows up as text only, eg
Code:
<b>This is bold</b> this is not
instead of
Code:
this is bold this is not
and
2) the textarea I am using as a password field shows up as text, not *******.

Ant ideas why this is, and how ( urgently! ) to fix it?
